Dirty Rabbit

Tee-Jay Marasigan of Automotion/ Project B has come a long way. From playing with Matchbox cars, sneaking out the family car, to finally getting his own: a Honda Civic EK9 imported straight from Japan he calls the “Dirty Rabbit.”

It was love at first sight. After getting the paperworks done, it was down to business: the car was stripped down, repainted inside out. From the get go, the goal was to build a track driven car which could double as a daily driven “grocery getter.”

The engine of choice was a B20B VTEC with a Japanese B16 head for maximum horsepower. Unfortunately, they had a blown out engine while on the track (ouch) so they needed a replacement engine. Thankfully he says, he got a similar engine on a loan from a friend. He’s a very lucky guy indeed.

This project was not a quick turnaround. It was a slow build with every bit well thought out. With budget constraints, every single part should be worthy, every upgrade “done right.”

4 years after acquiring the car, he says it’s a finished build and he’s ready to move on to a new project. He’s got his eye on a CRZ, which we should say is a really fine choice. It should be as slick as the “Dirty Rabbit” and like this EK9, it will no doubt be “done right.”
